Abstract

One of the dominant streams of contemporary Russian literature is often called dirty realism or cruel literature as it is rather fond of portraying pathological personalities, representing brutal cruelties, sadistic and masochistic as well as necrophilic scenes. Sensuality returns to literature by the deformation, degradation and dissolution of the body. The physical processes provoking disgust are described in an obscene, rude language, thus border crossing and taboo demolishing take place on the stylistic level, too. Based on the works of Victor Yerofeev and Vladimir Sorokin, my paper examines the philosophic and anthropologic roots of this aesthetic, intellectual and ethical provocation.
